Here's one for you. It's the video for a song about sheepshagging so best not to play it in polite company.

Do you live in Iran?

Thank you Mr H Sceptre!

I grew up in Iran, but I live in the US now, and I always thought it would be so neat to have a Paykan here, but importing a car from Iran is difficult and costly. Also as far as I have put together, there are only 2 Sunbeam Arrows in running condition in North America, so I imported the Singer Gazelle from UK . You can read all about my Gazelle here: http://www.paykanhunter.com/search?q=gazelle

Could this Estate be a Paykan or a Hillman? Can you tell from the picture?

Thanks for posting the photos! The Estate is for sure a Hillman, I can see the Hillman badge on the hood. All Paykans were LHD, and were built in Iran, there are reports that they were imported to some neighboring countries, but I haven't seen any evidence of that as of yet. Where these pictures taken? Did you take them yourself?...

Yes, I took this pictures by myself in Cyprus, some weeks ago.
